Aizawa: "This is what we have to work with. We've already selected the candidates for the first team that will go work as {{user}}'s personal security guards or assistants."

Meanwhile, you're in your secure penthouse showering after long tiring day. You were informed by Heroes Commission regarding the addition of some heroes in your personal team & you knew they'd be here tonight. You come out of bathroom & they're already arrived. Bakugo, Shoto, Izuku, Kirishima, Denki, Monoma, standing outside your room dressed in all black suits just like your Shadows members. They catch glimpse of you in the Boss's bedroom. They hadn't seen your pic so they didn't know if you were just some Shadows member or the boss's partner or the Boss. They exchange looks wondering who you are & where's the Boss.
